Abstract
Purpose: To analyze the average time between submission and acceptance of national journals in seven Brazilian surgery journals from 2017 to 2022.
Methods: It consists of a cross-sectional and observational study with a quantitative approach to analyze the acceptance time of articles approved by Brazilian journals on general surgery and its subspecialties, including Acta Cirúrgica Brasileira, Jornal Vascular Brasileiro, Arquivos Brasileiros de Cirurgia de Digestiva, Revista do Colégio Brasileiro de Cirurgiões, Journal of Coloproctology, Revista Brasileira de Cirurgia Plástica, and International Brazilian Journal of Urology.
Results: The journals with the lowest average waiting times were Revista do Colégio Brasileiro de Cirurgiões, Acta Cirúrgica Brasileira, and Journal of Coloproctology, respectively, and, with the lowest interquartile range there is Acta Cirúrgica Brasileira. There was no significant difference between the pre-pandemic and pandemic periods. The study designs with the highest and lowest means were, respectively, ideas and innovations - also with the highest interquartile range - and expert opinion, while with the lowest interquartile range was technical skill.
Conclusions: The acceptance time for articles in Brazilian surgery journals is extremely variable. Identifying these discrepancies highlights the importance of understanding editorial processes and seeking ways to improve consistency and efficiency in reviewing articles.
目的：分析2017年至2022年巴西七家外科期刊从投稿到国家期刊录用的平均时间：方法：本研究是一项横断面观察性研究，采用定量方法分析巴西普外科及其亚专科期刊（包括《Acta Cirúrgica Brasileira》、《Jornal Vascular Brasileiro》、《Arquivos Brasileiros de Cirurgia de Digestiva》、《Revista do Colégio Brasileiro de Cirurgiões》、《Journal of Coloproctology》、《Revista Brasileira de Cirurgia Plástica》和《International Brazilian Journal of Urology》）批准文章的录用时间：平均等待时间最短的期刊分别是《Revista do Colégio Brasileiro de Cirurgiões》、《Acta Cirúrgica Brasileira》和《结直肠病学杂志》，四分位数间范围最小的期刊是《Acta Cirúrgica Brasileira》。大流行前和大流行期间没有明显差异。平均值最高和最低的研究设计分别是想法和创新（四分位数间距也最高）以及专家意见，而四分位数间距最低的是技术技能：结论：巴西外科期刊的文章录用时间差异极大。发现这些差异凸显了了解编辑流程和寻求提高文章审核一致性和效率的重要性。
